2022 Kappelrodeck Heidenhöfe Weißburgunder Grosses Gewächs trocken, Baden, Germany

Nutty, smoky and slightly vegetal nose with warm aromas of ripe, partly candied citrus fruit as well as some pomaceous and stone fruit, floral nuances, a hint of wax and herbs. Quite firm, slightly sweetish fruit, smoky wood flavours and vegetal to herbal tones, quite present, a little lemony acidity, grip of fine sandy tannin, noticeable alcohol, certain persistence, candy tones and a little wax, slightly drying tannin, not too deep, sweetish-tart, smoky and alcohol-warm finish, again with noticeable sweetness.
